+++TITANS OF THE HERESY+++

AN ADEPTUS TITANICUS PAINTING EVENT

gallery_27176_14912_482480.png

THIS YEAR IS THE B&C 20TH ANNIVERSARY - TO CELEBRATE THIS OCCASION THE INNER CIRCLE IS RUNNING A SERIES OF EVENTS ALL MARKED "B&C-20"! SOME EVENTS ARE FAMILIAR AND SOME WILL BE BRAND NEW!!!

Welcome to the first Inner Circle event based on the Adeptus Titanicus game!

THE AIM:
The purpose of the event is to motivate participants to build and paint Titans for their games of “Adeptus Titanicus”. As such, the event’s rules are aligned with the game’s rules but also leave enough space to customize the forces to the participants liking and/or needs.

THE DURATION:
The event will run from January 15th2019 until April 15th2019. You’ll have the entire day of April 15thregardless of time-zone.

THE RULES:

You are initially called to choose one of the following Tasks:

TASK 1: PRINCEPS
Paint one Titan (any kind) to obtain the rank of Princeps

TASK 2: PRINCEPS SENIORIS
Paint the mandatory components of any official Maniple to obtain the rank of Princeps Senioris (3 Titans)

TASK 3: PRINCEPS MAJORIS
Paint both the mandatory and the optional components of any official Maniple to obtain the rank of Princeps Majoris (5 Titans)

TASK 4: PRINCEPS VENERABILIS
Paint the mandatory components of TWO official Maniples to obtain the rank of Princeps Venerabilis. The two Maniples do not have to come from the same Legio but all the Titans of each Maniple must be of the same Legio. (6 Titans)

TASK 5: PRINCEPS SACROSANCTUS
Paint the mandatory and optional components of two official Maniples, to obtain the rank of Princeps Sacrosanctus! The two Maniples do not have to come from the same Legio but all the Titans of each Maniple must be of the same Legio. (10 Titans)

If a participant fails to complete his/her task then he/she will become a SERVITOR carrying the appropriate badge until the end of the year – a fitting punishment for those who let the Titan Legions down!

Participants may wear, if they wish, the participation badge:

IMPORTANT NOTE 1:
Participants must commit to a single task when they first enter the event, but once they complete it, they may upgrade to another Task if they feel adventurous! They can even do so by incorporating their previously completed Titan(s) into the new Task! However, the minute they upgrade, they will be held responsible for the upgraded Task – if they fail, they’ll become Servitors, not the rank of their previous Task!

EXAMPLE:
A participant takes-on Task 1, i.e. to paint a single Titan thus aiming for the rank of Princeps. Once the single Titan is finished, the participant may opt to bow out of the event, receiving the rank of Princeps or up the stakes and commit to a larger formation – say Task 2: paint the mandatory components of an official Maniple (that is two more Titans of the appropriate Class). If the participant manages to complete that Task in time, he/she may upgrade a third time utilizing their existing force into whatever new task the participant may choose and so on.

The upgrades do not have to be linear, i.e. one may take on Task 1 and then upgrade to Task 3 for example. Nor should participants feel compelled to go to their final Task gradually through upgrades. If a participant wants to commit to Task 4 straight away for example, he/she is free to do it!

THE OFFICIAL MANIPLES:
For those of you who are not familiar with the rules of Adeptus Titanicus but are still interested in painting those fantastic miniatures, here’s a breakdown of the official Maniples at the time that the rules are written:

1.Axiom Battleline Maniple:

a. Mandatory Components: One Warlord Battle Titan, one Reaver Battle Titan, one Warhound Scout Titan

b. Optional Components: One Reaver Battle Titan, one Warhound Scout Titan


2.Myrmidon Battleline Maniple:

a. Mandatory Components: Two Warlord Battle Titans, one Reaver Battle Titan

b. Optional Components: One Warlord Battle Titan, one Reaver Battle Titan


3.Venator Light Maniple:

a. Mandatory Components: One Reaver Battle Titan, two Warhound Scout Titans

b. Optional Components: Two Warhound Scout Titans


4.Lupercal Light Maniple:

a. Mandatory Components: Three Warhound Scout Titans

b. Optional Components: Two Warhound Scout Titans

5. Corsair Battleline Maniple:

a. Mandatory Components: Three Reaver Battle Titans

b. Optional Components: Two Reaver Battle Titans

6. Regis Battleline Maniple:

a. Mandatory Components: Two Warlord Battle Titans, one Warhound Scout Titan

b. Optional Components: Two Warhound Scout Titans

7. Janissary Battleline Maniple:

a. Mandatory Components: One Reaver Battle Titan, two Warhound Scout Titans

b. Optional Components: One Reaver Battle Titan, one Warhound Scout Titan

In case new official Maniples make an appearance during the life of the event, it goes without saying that they are eligible for this event too.

IMPORTANT NOTE 2:
Since this event is aligned to the rules of the Adeptus Titanicus game, please note the following:

Legio Gryphonicus: Legio Gryphonicus may substitute a single Titan in any maniple for a Reaver Titan (due to high availability of the latter in this particular Legio).

Legio Solaria: Legio Solaria may substitute a Reaver Titan for a Warhound Titan in any maniple as part of its mandatory components.

Legio Krytos: Legio Krytos may substitute a Reaver Titans for a Warlord Titan as part of the Myrmidon maniple's mandatory components.


IMPORTANT NOTE 3:
If participants don’t feel like painting official maniples, they can still obtain the ranks mentioned above by painting the number of Titans corresponding to each Task.

KNIGHT BANNERS:

This is an event focused on Titans (obviously). However we realise the allure Knights hold on many Frater - not to mention their usefulness in-game. As such, there are two tasks for Knight enthusiasts:

Task A: Paint the minimum number of Knights in any given Banner to obtain the rank of Baron,

Task B: Paint a least a full-strength Banner to obtain the rank of Seneschal.

I realise that Questoris and Cerastus Banners have different Knight counts but, c' est la vie!

The Titan vows take precedence over the Knight vows. That means if one vows both for Titans and Knights and you make the Titan vow, you'll be eligible to bear the badge of the relevant Titan rank even if you fail the Knight vow. If you fail the Titan vow however, you'll become a Servitor EVEN if you make the Knight vow! If, of course, you only make either a Titan vow or a Knight vow and you fail it, then (as you'd expect) you'll become a Servitor.

CAPTAIN SEMPER’S NOTES:
When Adeptus Titanicus hit the shelves I was ecstatic! The miniatures are of manageable size, plastic (yeah!) and most importantly an amazingly accurate translation of the big 40k-sized originals! The models are just too good to be true! On the back of that there is the exciting Titan-specific background and a rule-set that seems to me very fluid and immersing!

It’ll be great to get your feedback and comments for the “Titans of the Heresy” and if there is adequate following, it may even become a recurring event – especially as Forge World promises to add more Titan Classes and possibly other stuff too in the future.

As always it is expected that all miniatures will be painted to the best of each participant’s ability – there is no conceivable reason why you should compromise your skill. Just choose a task that suits you and go for it! Oh, and don’t forget to name your Titans – in games with a limited number of models, it really gives life to your force to name each piece!

A special thanks to Grotsmasha, a veteran member of the Inner Circle, who responded to the imagery demands of the event in a short notice and delivered amazing results! Thank you brother!

Good luck to all!

May worlds burn and the enemy tremble in the name of the Warmaster! Edited by DuskRaider

Princeps Cadet TDA reporting for duty, Legio Ignatum will pledge for task 3 with an Axiom Battle Maniple.

 

Failure will not be tolerated,

 

I will either find a way or I shall make one.

 

Editet with pledge picture, there should be more than enough unstarted and half built titans here to fulfill my pledge.

Great showing so far guys - and remember: you may start with a small task and upgrade on it once you fell confident! :) 

 

Also, if you have settled on the Legio, do share! It's going to be fun to see which Legio is the most popular! :)

 

 

UPDATED TO THIS POINT!

Just to clarify, since I never participated in one of these group events before, is it encouraged to post updates in this thread as well? or only finished pledges?

Yes, please post updates. I usually don't like posting WIP photos either but during an event I usually do a weekly update.

I edited my post with my Legio but you must have grabbed the info for your update before that. I’m going to be adding to my Legio Ignatum. Looking forward to getting started!

 

Will the tracking updates show Loyalist vs Traitors scores like ETL does between factions?

 

Hey you can never be sure what projects you may have in mind unless you declare them! :wink: What you say here is what matters, the rest are hearsay. :tongue.:

 

Also, check your PM...

 

I just ordered a battle group so guess I am in.

 

Not sure what Legio yet, I'll decide when it get's here later this week.

 

Doghouse, this is something I really look forward to! 

 

As regards Legio, well, with Titandeath coming in next week, there will be much more choice. I, for one, vote Vulpa! :thumbsup:

Luckily four models shouldn't put me off track too much. :biggrin.:

 

I used to run Fire Wasps back in first edition and later Legio Gryphonicus when Codex Titanicus came out but might go with Legio Astorum.

 

Put me down for Astorum.

 

I will :yes: So are we talking Task 2?

 

Captain, is it okay if I decide what maniples I will do when we know about the new ones in Titandeath?

 

TOTALLY!!!

 

Besides, when the Titandeath becomes available I will be updating the rules above to account for the inevitable new Maniples! :smile.:

I, Atia, Lady of the Rumour Tower, pledge to finish Task 4 in order to claim the Princeps Venerabilis!

 

And as usual, since I'm also known as hobby butterfly and double agent - I'll do a Venator Light Maniple for Legio Solaria aswell as an Janissary Battleline Maniple for Legio Mortis! Before that I also need to finish two more Reavers for Legio Gryphonicus :sweat: :whistling:

I've never done a painting pledge before and I'm not a good painter either.  Even though I plan to move and switch jobs before the summer I'll give this a shot and paint three Warlords and two Reavers for a full Myrmidon maniple.

 

 

Legio Aurora will serve the Warmaster, death the false emperor!
